I am from out of town, will you lease a property without me seeing it?

Yes, however we strongly suggest a family member or friend view the property first. We may require a disclaimer to be signed by the future tenant.

What is a Security Deposit Used for?

The Security Deposit is your good faith payment that you intend to move-in to a chosen property. The Security Deposit can be taken at any point during the application process. If the application is denied, the deposit will be returned. If application is approved and applicant decides not to move-in to property the full deposit is surrendered in order to reimburse advertisement, reservation and application fees. The deposit is also used after move-out to reimburse the owner of the property of any legal or physical damages, and will be returned if no damages occurred.

Rent is due the 1st of every month, regardless of weekends, holidays or move-in/ move-out date.
